A maintenance technician is responsible for keeping buildings, equipment, and systems in good working order through a combination of routine inspections, preventative maintenance, and emergency repairs.
The primary goal is to minimize downtime and prevent costly disruptions by proactively addressing issues.
Inspections & Diagnostics: Regularly survey buildings, equipment, and systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical, etc.) to identify potential issues, hazards, or malfunctions.
Preventative Maintenance (PM): Conduct routine, scheduled maintenance tasks such as lubricating moving parts, tightening bolts, cleaning filters, and replacing worn components to prevent future breakdowns.
Repairs & Troubleshooting: Respond promptly to work orders and emergency requests, diagnose mechanical or electrical problems using diagnostic tools, and implement effective solutions.
System Upkeep: Perform maintenance and repairs on a variety of building systems, which may include electrical wiring, plumbing systems, heating and cooling units, and structural elements (walls, doors, windows, etc.).
Documentation & Compliance: Maintain accurate records of all maintenance and repair work performed, manage inventory of parts and supplies, and ensure all activities comply with safety regulations and internal policies (e.g., OSHA, safety protocols).
Collaboration: Coordinate with external vendors or contractors for specialized repairs and collaborate with other departments to ensure seamless operations.
